Come From Aeay

I'm trying to translate that into Newfinese, and I can't? Aeay=Away?

Pix, Have you guys had yourselves checked out? I am glad kitty is on the mend.

msbelle, hang in there. I hope mac gets hit with the cluestick soon.

I have recovered from the stomach flu, and will feel safe in Xmas indulging because I lost about 6-7lbs in 48 hours. I just had a bagel, which was the first thing I ate without fearing it.

Timelies all!

I'm so sorry Pix and ND. That's awful.

Ugh, msbelle, I am sending love and support to you, and gentle clue vibes to mac. It's so hard and I don't have any advice as I know you are doing the kinds of things I'd be doing in that situation. Franny's grades are going to be okay, but her grade in math took a nose dive right at the end, when it counts. Oh well. I watched her beat herself up and decided not to join in, but I will be meeting with her teacher next year.

And Pix and ND, lots of sympathy there. Sounds like a mess, I am so sorry you have to deal with it.

lisah, that sounds delicious. I'd love the recipe.

Glad you have the right man, Burrell! :) now get your celebrating on! Is Franny old enough to babysit? Plan a nice dinner tomorrow or a movie! Or both!

We are going to a nice brunch today when the kids are at the art conservatory. Haven't decided where yet, and I need to go make pancakes for the kids

We had pancakes also this AM. It seems like the first day of vacation is a perfect time for pancakes.

I should go to the post office, but I'm filled with can't this morning. I just can't. At all. And I kinda don't want to. I suck at Christmas for my parents which is making this worse. I think my malaise is related to my cold. I've tried netty pot, mucinex, a hot toddy. Nothing is making me feel better.

I have to do my performance review today. I feel like I'm writhing a legal brief.

I napped. I'm mostly packed. Just have to figure out which jeans I'm wearing and which I'm packing. But first, I think I'll go swim.

Ugh Kat, I hate the Christmas don't wannas. I am trying to at least fake a bit of happy for the break and the holidays. I have actual happy for the thought of delicious brunch, happy enough that I skipped the pancakes for myself, but not the coffee. Drank all the coffee.

That's the one who was just looking for a friend, meara? Maybe that word doesn't mean what she thinks it means.

If this is so, I recommend taking her at her word and acting as a disinterested platonic friend, no matter how oblivious that requires you to be. She'll clearly find that infuriating.

Ugh, just found out a family friend is going home into hospice care. I have known her and her husband all my life, their kids are my age, so we spent a LOT of my youth together. The father died a year ago, he was my dad's best friend. The mom, P, had been in a horrific muni accident a couple of years back, dealing with cancer since July, and then got hit with pneumonia and aplastic anemia.

My heart breaks for the family - mom and dad gone just over a year from eachother. For me, every time I check my e-mail I'm terrified when I see a Caring Bridge update, knowing one of the next ones will say she is gone from this world. She is an AMAZING woman, as was her husband.

That's the one who was just looking for a friend, meara? Maybe that word doesn't mean what she thinks it means.

Yeah, I'm definitely on the "girl, if you were just my friend, you'd just fucking join me on the dance floor"

If this is so, I recommend taking her at her word and acting as a disinterested platonic friend, no matter how oblivious that requires you to be. She'll clearly find that infuriating.

Pretty much my plan. After she left and texted about being upset, I was like "...if you wanted to dance you should've got out on the dance floor"

Hah, no, just a typo--it was "Come From Away"
